St. Louis Aquarium at Union Station

The aquarium itself is very well taken care of and makes for a great visit. However, the outside area felt a bit empty and dull though I think that was more due to the specific day and time I went. The fish pond outside could use a little attention; the algae buildup along the sides was pretty overwhelming. Aside from that, the surrounding area looked nice overall. The gift shop inside was a pleasant surprise lots of fun items and the prices weren’t too bad. I ended up choosing a turtle toy (because I love turtles, lol). Admission was a bit pricey per person, but if you have kids, I’d definitely recommend it as a fun and educational outing.

This was my first time visiting this aquarium, and I had a great experience. The exhibits were vibrant and full of fascinating marine life. While I think the overall setup is more suited for younger children, I still had a wonderful time exploring everything with my kids.

This was my first visit to this aquarium. I thought it was really nice. Lots of beautiful sea life. I really enjoyed all the hands on activities. I feel like it’s geared more to younger kids but at the same time I really enjoyed myself. The entry in was reasonable as well,

I had a really good at this aquarium with my family! The place is easily accessible, it was not even hard to find a parking spot (even tho it was on a Saturday) clean, and very good maintained too! The aquarium workers were nothing but incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, like for every spot you were stopping by they will explain to you what each different fish & aquatic animal do, they also have dynamics that you can interact with some of the animals from the aquarium, making the visit even more interesting! There are plenty of different facilities where you can explore and see a wide variety of fish and aquatic animals. Definitely a great spot for anyone looking to get out of the dairy routine☺️ Oh & not to forget that they have military discount! We use our military discount & we payed (4 of us) $29 per person

We LOVED the aquarium!! The beginning starts with this interactive train ride that reminds me of the Howarts express at Universal. It's definitely one of my favorite things at the aquarium. We were able to pet the rays. We also touched an anemone, a starfish, a sea urchin, and we had the fish eat our dead skincells from our hands! Do not miss the otter feeding! It's definitely worth it! The place is well planned, the areas flow pretty seamlessly, and you get to see a lot of cool tanks with all sorts of amazing creatures! The shark tank was enormous and had so many cool fish! The aquarium also has some kid areas for kids to play, and the gift shop had a lot of fun things to buy.
